MMXIV, Teeth, VARY and BUCKS have been merged into a new coin that is incidentally called GorillaBucks (like the previous one).
If you had your coins in a local wallet (not on Exchange) you can get them swapped.

So who feels like mining...?

Is the pool down? stratum+tcp://balls.mmxivcoin.com:3333

   With the current difficulty, it will take your 1.5K balls a little while to stake.  They will continue to accrue interest while waiting to stake, so your not losing anything, except access to them. 

   Based on the design of Balls it could take a little while for the network to level out.  At first everyone was staking almost as soon as the coins were mature.  Since they were less then 48 hours old, every stake was getting split into smaller and smaller stakes.  Then as everyone started pulling Balls from the exchanges to stake, the larger stakes were happening fast and the smaller ones took longer.  The larger piles are being split, and the smaller piles are gaining weight.  When the smaller piles finally stake, they will not be split because the time is greater then 48 hours.  Eventually, if no one added new coins to stake, all of the stakes would be close to the same size. 

   This is all done to keep the network flowing smoothly. 

So what are you trying to say? That I can't put hardware related questions to Spondoolies in their hardware thread but it's perfectly fine for you troll the AM shareholders thread? Are you an AM shareholder? If not, why are you even posting in that thread?

Do you have a problem with the relevant on-topic question that I asked?

Nope, they will split themselves as they stake.
Just leave your wallet unlocked.
Be careful, wallet seems to auto lock after 24hrs.

I just thought I'd point out a few things on these. First, you'll note that the low performer is only using 1176W (DC) whereas the high performer is using 1254W. This means you're getting 0.857 J/GH (DC) on the slow machine and 0.832 J/GH on the fast one, so your fast unit clearly has superior ASICs. Second, you have slightly higher voltages on the fast machine on average, which is probably responsible for the lower power consumption. There might be a way to increase the voltages that the firmware settles on by changing (increasing) the initial voltages, but you also might brick your miner by trying that, and you'd only gain at most around 80 GH/s and you'd lose efficiency as well.

As for the waviness of the line, if you look at the graphs you'll notice that the one running 1.5.8 has the graph scale go from 1.2 TH/s to 1.5 TH/s, but the one running 1.5.4 has the graph scale go from 0 TH/s to 1.6 TH/s. The reason for this scaling difference is that Zvi made this modification (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=521520.msg8356336#msg8356336) in the more recent firmware after I showed it to him. Consequently, the graphs on 1.5.8 just show more detail than on 1.5.4.

Just landed from long 2 weeks trip.
All the information regarding refunds, specs, etc will be released later this week.

Why don't you ask SP to sell you 29 x SP30s and that you'll pay for them in 6 months let's see how that will work out for you. The reason I switched to Toom.im hosting was because at that hosting rate with SP I would lose for sure 100%. So switching to Toom.im was the natural thing to do to minimize the loss and expenses in order to get as close to the ROI as possible. Of course SP themselves suggested to do that, which of course is good advise because paying $500 a month for 1 miner is just something that's not going to happen. Yes I agree that I end up with 10TH more but that's at the cost of an extra 14,500 Watts altogether.

Anyway we will see in 6-12 months time, I hope I am wrong and that I can get my money back. Keep in mind that people aren't support to worry about only breaking even, if you took that money and bought shares in a company or did some other investment you could make a nice profit instead of being in a situation of simple trying to get your money back from mining.

Just real tired of reading 20 pages of bitching and complaining and then soon as someone gets their hardware they wanna go back to kissing ass. Sorry, but ya'll sound like a bunch of women in here. And pardon me if there really is any women, but from all bullshit I've read in the past 20 pages I don't think so.

hard reset worked punching the button on the front

You'll find out why some people are whining in about 8-12 months when we don't get ROI and our miners end up in the bins.

lets gloss over the painful truth (BRIBE) and focus on 'your' amazing shipping skills, shall we...?


so when its going wrong its nothing to do with SP, and when a customer has no choice but to pay a bribe to get it out THIS MONTH, you're impressed with yourselves....

well done, you're awesome!!


can i be compensated with 21% off an SP31 but not pay the balance until you actually release definite specs?




update - 4,667.41 GH/s

You really should give this up before you embarrass yourself further. You made a statement designed to demean the ST chip against a competitors without explaining the tech behind the apparent 'better' performance from the latter. That's not what good engineers do, they can only compare two devices by giving them the same operating conditions or by explaining how results come about from testing. Lower power consumption does not equate to higher efficiency, I don't have the motivation to explain it to you, so you'll have to work it out for yourself.

As for W/GH and J/GH, they are NOT the same. I would  gladly explain to you if I thought you might be capable of understanding what I said, but you clearly won't. Watts are a measure of power, Joules of energy. They are NOT the same, although again it's amusing that you think you can argue that they are.

I have no interest in what you buy of from whom but I'll be damned if I'll sit back and watch amateurs use misinformation to try to put down the technology of good companies that might pose a threat to their interests. I've read quite a lot of your comments about several companies, not much constructive criticism or support in there, is there? Not a lot of criticism of AM either, funnily enough, but I guess you feel you don't have to as they're going to 'crush' the competition, eh? I have the distinct feeling that you're going to regret ever having said that.

From now on, why don't you leave the technical stuff to the grown ups and stick to what you do best - entertainment?

While I'm writing can I also remind you that you haven't as yet done the ROI comparison between the AM solution and the SP30 I suggested? I'd really love to see it and I'll bet a lot of other would too, so get busy.

To the Spondoolies people, sorry for taking up space in your thread. I'm sure you have a lot on your plate at the moment but what you don't need is opportunists using this situation to push their own agendas.
